Im a 45 spinning on an old Victrola
Im a two strike swinger, Im a Pepsi Cola
Im a blue jean quarterback saying "I love you" to the prom queen
In a Chevy
Im John Wayne, Superman, California
Im a Kris Kristofferson Sunday morning
Im a mom and daddy singing along to Don McLean
At the levee
And Im a child of a backseat freedom, baptized by rock and roll
Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden, never grow up, never grow old
Just another rebel in the great wide open, on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I learned everything I needed to know from John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16
Hey, hey
Everything I needed
Thats right
Im Mark Twain on the Mississippi
Im Hemingway with a shot of whiskey
Im a TV dinner on a tray trying to figure out the Wheel of Fortune
Im a Texaco star, Im a Gibson guitar
Im still a teenage kid trying to go too far
Im a jukebox waiting in a neon bar for a quarter
Im a child of a backseat freedom, baptized by rock and roll
Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden, never grow up, never grow old
Just another rebel in the great wide open, on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I learned everything I needed to know from John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16
I spent a lot of years running from believing,
Looking for another way to save my soul
The longer I live, the more I see it, theres only one way home
Im a child of a backseat freedom, baptized by rock and roll
Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden, never grow up, never grow old
Just another rebel in the great wide open, on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I learned everything I needed to know from John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16
Im a child of a backseat freedom, baptized by rock and roll
Marilyn Monroe and the Garden of Eden, never grow up, never grow old
Just another rebel in the great wide open, on the boulevard of broken dreams
And I learned everything I needed to know from John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16
Everything I needed
(John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16)
Everything I needed
(John Cougar, John Deere, John 3:16)
Thats right
